New painting

Here is the last little (8″ x 10″) painting for my upcoming show in Glens Falls. For such a small painting, this one gave me a lot of trouble! (This is actually my second attempt. I spent 10 hours on the first one, before I declared it a disaster.) The painting is entitled Autumn Serenity and was based on a photo I took while kayaking with friends on the Feeder Canal. It was a perfectly gorgeous autumn day and the water’s undisturbed reflection in the canal mimicked the landscape exactly. I painted thousands of little dots, building up the color, to create the bright leaves. This painting will be part of an invitational show later this month, highlighting scenes in the Glens Falls area and beyond.

  1. I am new to your blog. I don’t even know if it is polite or right to be able to comment. What you have done in my humble opinion us absolutely gorgeous a labour of love.
